External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar dismissed the claims of US President Donald Trump that he used trade to force India and Pakistan to accept a ceasefire, as he shared his firsthand account of the talks between New Delhi and Washington before negotiating with Islamabad.
In an exclusive chat with Newsweek in New York, the Minister revealed he was with Prime Minister Narendra Modi when US Vice President JD Vance spoke to him by phone, and there was no linking of trade and ceasefire as far as India was concerned.
